"PANDORA'S BOX is guaranteed to make you chuckle;
it also has a heartwarming effect. By the middle, you will have no idea
how the author can make everything come out right for all involved, yet
Ms. Stenzel pulls it off beautifully. Best of all, there are a couple of
sequels in the works. One will be called THE DRUID MADE ME DO IT, coming
in August. Get in on the fun; go ahead and open PANDORA'S BOX." "Stenzel creates
characters that are witty, strong, lovable and, oh, so sexy! As the plot
raced from point to point, it was funny, romantic, suspenseful, and sweet
with a dose of bittersweet to evoke a few of my tears. What a whirlwind! I
wholeheartedly recommend PANDORA'S BOX to any
reader of the comically paranormal romance genre."

PANDORA'S BOX
Dorchester Love Spell What's a puca, you ask? A tricky faery-type, whose magic not only includes shape-shifting into a magnificent black stallion and a snarky mutt, but the ability to manipulate human perceptions. And Riordan is hardly shy of manipulations: Wasn't that why he was imprisoned in the first place? He seems set upon making Mina's life harder than ever, whether it be with Jonathon Teague, the handsome contractor who wants to work on more than her house, or Mina's penitent ex-boyfriend. But as Riordan's very existence proves, things are not always what they seem, and what stepped out of that box might be the key to her dreams.
To read an excerpt of Pandora's box,
"At first
blush, it's just a paranormal, romantic bit of fluff, but as you get into
it, a depth is revealed. If Ms. Stenzel ever takes it into her head to
plot a murder mystery, she will rival Agatha Christie on talent for red
herrings." "This
lighthearted romantic fantasy will have readers laughing out loud...Few
triangles have been so much fun to follow...Sub-genre fans will relish
PANDORA'S BOX..."

"Natalie Stenzel's SEEKING MISS SCARLET is a
witty, wicked affair that's not for the timid -- twisted humor abounds."
|
Seeking Miss Scarlet What man can resist the seductive glide of a woman in red? But introvert Valerie Longstreet's pretend vamp -- a.k.a. Miss Scarlet -- doesn't seem to be having much success luring the local hottie PI, Jack Harrison. Even dangling the temptation of cross-promotion between her mystery theatre and his investigation business isn't having the desired effect. Only when she becomes embroiled in a real whodunit does his interest pique. Even then, Jack insists on looking behind the diva to the nice-girl Val. That will never do. Trouble is, will Miss Scarlet be able to keep up the mystery -- when it's Val who wants to play under the covers? |

"Natalie Stenzel walks the fine line between
humor and pathos with assurance in POP-UP DATING."
"Chick lit fans will enjoy this
often amusing, but as frequent serious contemporary romance because the
cast, especially the lead trio, seems so very real. . . Surprisingly
filled with plenty of angst and obvious humor, readers will take pleasure
from POP UP DATING."

Pop-Up Dating A Twelve-Step Program for the Obsessively Codependent . . . By Natalie Stenzel Harlequin Flipside March 2004 ISBN: 0-373-44186-X There's nothing trivial about the pursuit of passion. At least not when Cassie Smythe and her friend -- who have OD'd on "serious relationships" -- decide they're in for a good time, not a long time. Scoping out the terrain, they discover passion is not on tap in sports bars and that cyberromance is as exciting as a loose connection. And trolling? That nets nothing but trolls. The only thing left is for Cassie to bite the bullet and introduce her friend to her own Mr. Maybe. The one she'd seen such a future with she never dared date him again. After all, she isn't ready to settle and he deserves a good relationship, right? So why is she so reluctant to give up that number? Click here to read an excerpt

Forget Prince Charming
By Natalie Stenzel
Harlequin Flipside
November 2003
ISBN: 0-373-44178-9
Haley Watson has kissed one too many Prince Charmings -- those major hunks with major character flaws. She caught her latest ex-hunk warming up for their romantic weekend by having sex with his secretary. So if all princes are jerks, then geeks -- aka frogs -- must actually be a sweet, reliable, overlooked species. Natural habitat: computer stores and libraries. But just when Haley has a real live geek in her sights, her new neighbor Rick Samuels -- the Anti-Nerd -- starts in with the charm. Haley informs him that she dates only hotties with pocket protectors and thick glasses. Rick resents Haley's stereotyping and feels it's time to teach Haley rule #1 of the Genus Geekus . . . Some frogs really are just frogs. And some princes are frogs in disguise.
